Ocean currents affect spatial patterns of fish communities in the Yellow Sea–Bohai Sea ecotone

Ecological Processes
Background Understanding the drivers of spatial patterns in fish communities is important for protecting fishery ecosystems. However, the influence of ocean currents on the spatial patterns of fish communities remains poorly understood.

Dual Single Atoms Boosting Photocatalytic Upcycling of Raw Polyvinylidene Fluoride Plastic

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
To resolve the catastrophic disaster of plastic contamination, the Cu‐Fe dual‐single‐atom‐loaded In2P3S9 NSs photocatalyst was prepared for direct conversion of raw polyvinylidene fluoride plastic into valuable chemicals. The dual‐single‐atom catalyst exhibits exceptional performance, with a total acetic/formic acid production of ∼1351.8 µmol g−1 ...

Biomass DNA: An Emerging Building Block for Advanced Materials

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Biomass DNA is rapidly emerging from its traditional role as a genetic blueprint to serve as a versatile abundant, highly programmable polymeric building block. This review highlights the transformation of macroscopic bulk biomass DNA into next generation of functional materials, spanning from dynamic hydrogels, sustainable bioplastics, and high ...

Life‐Like Ferrous Oxide Microspheres from Kombucha

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Kombucha bacterial cellulose, sodium alginate, and ferrous nitrate self‐assemble into membrane‐enclosed iron oxide microspheres. These microspheres bud daughter vesicles, sustain 24‐h electrochemical oscillations, and filter theta‐band signals.

Coherent Absorption Reveals Colors Hidden in a Grey Fabry–Pérot Cavity

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A dielectric thin film shows colors depending on its thickness; this effect can be used to encode information normally accessible through single‐beam spectroscopy. We developed a method to conceal this kind of information, based on coating the dielectric with a matched conductor, that suppresses the color‐bearing thin‐film resonances.

Subseasonal variability of ocean currents in the Bay of Bengal

Discover Oceans
Upper-ocean currents in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) reverse seasonally in response to wind forcing. Less is known about their behavior on the subseasonal (30–60-day) time scale, including by phase of the leading mode of subseasonal atmospheric variability in

Pointing Calibration for Spaceborne Doppler Scatterometers

Remote Sensing
Doppler scatterometers have demonstrated the ability to measure wide-swath ocean surface currents from airborne platforms. Since platform velocities for spaceborne platforms are almost two orders of magnitude larger, errors in the knowledge of the ...

Electrically Induced Photonic Assemblies of Faceted ZIF‐8 Crystals Exhibiting Binary Angle‐Dependent Structural Color and Metamerism

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Electric fields drive dynamic photonic assemblies that reversibly generate structural color. By tuning nanoscale organization through controlled particle disorder, the presented system exhibits a unique binary color response, switching between blue and pink depending on viewing angle. Combined with metameric design, this allows for a two‐factor optical

Enhancing Amphibious Flipper‐Based Locomotion Through Terrain‐Dependent Bayesian Optimization of Central Pattern Generator Control

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A sea turtle‐inspired amphibious robot uses simulation‐guided optimization to adapt its flipper coordination to different environments. Sensitivity analysis and multiobjective Bayesian optimization identify terrain‐dependent controllers that are validated on hardware.
